I was wondering if anyone knows good, approachable textbook or other resources about statistical field theory (topics like in Kardar's Statistical physics of fields: lattice models, mean field theory, ...

I am learning Monte Carlo and just manage to simulate a phase transition by computing the heat capacity or the susceptibility. I wish I can also compute critical exponents.To this purpose, I have read ...

Are there any exactly solvable models in statistical mechanics that are known to have critical exponents different from those in mean-field theory, apart from the two-dimensional Ising model? I wonder ...

The Hamiltonian for this system is given by
\begin{equation}
\mathcal{H} \{S\} = -H\sum_i S_i - \frac{J_0}{2} \sum_{ij} S_i S_j,
\end{equation}
where $H$ is the external magnetic field and there is no ...

In a critical theory with dynamical critical exponent $z \neq 1 $, which amongst frequency, $\omega$, and dispersion, $E(\vec{k})$, may be referred to as ''energy''? I'm confused about this since in ...

In Thomas Andrew's experiment, consider the dome shaped saturation region. If we increase the pressure at constant volume until we reach the critical point, why does the density of vapours rise and ...
